i thought we had to get the optional missions to get the leviathan award lol
Breathe a sigh of relief moments for this expedition
we have to fight a walker?
No, but you do have to shut down a planet's sentinels
And that is one way to do it
I didn't know where there was a nest 🙂
cant you just buy a navigation thingy to find a nest
i just did the kill sentinel mission, which give the map to a nest, then speed run on the nest
well, got it done in one shot anyway 🙂
navigation thingy is a reward from one of the milestones as well
Yes, that's what I said two up, lol
mmm, the pillar had an A class MT with a scatter blaster on it
Where can I acquire some storm crystals
Anchor 4 planet
I collected some from derelict freighter. I didn't realize we need to collect storm crystal so I sold them all. Should've finished by now aghh!!
It doesn't count unless you go collect them during a storm, so don't worry about it 🙂
owning storm crystals don't count. you have to actually collect them
So, uh, my game overshot me to anchor point 2 when I'm looking for the planet ennect, the expedition route literally kept telling me to warp and then I ended up at anchor point 2? I havent even been to anchoir point 1, and it WON'T give me a route to find it?
Just completed expedition
Ty ily
Got that bug with the 0/5 phases complete
Everyone does
I'm super hyped I got to name the 2 predators on the hot starting planet
never get to name stuff in expeditions lol
What should I do with all those memories? They're clustering my inventory
Just sell them?
Use them?
I have no room....
Some of them are inventory expanders
but if you mean the C class modules, yeah, go ahead and sell them to the nanite peeps
It's a total pain. I just need an hyperdrive upgrade
It's like one hypercore per jump right now
Gn
finally finished
is this proof enough for the expedition role <@&233305774745583618> https://lx.tta.wtf/selif/q6m0pr3g.jpg
since the tab proper is borked lol
i dont understand this loop progression thing
its just doing the loop research over and over for loop progression progress?
Yeah pretty much
Also dying progresses it I think
It progresses globally tho which is why it's so low rn
It's low because we're only on day 2
And it's community progression
It's a lotta turn ins
I don't imagine we'll get to the S class modules until close to the last week. Maybe last 10 days?
Considering the weekend is coming up, I imagine there will be a spike in progress where people finally have a few days
Waiting for a storm
Make a cave. That is all.
This expedition really was moleman simulator
Especially on anchor 4
lol
ahh
I never repaired my terrain manipulator
I did it to farm chromatic metal
you need the solar ray for that
Fixed my statement
a little hint - dismantle and rebuild it if you have the carbon for the second tube
ah
I never bothered farming chromatic metal
the activated emeril from the milestone was plenty
I can’t remember what I needed it to craft
I never got any activated emeril, must’ve been near the end when I wasn’t paying attention to resources
Probably got thrown into my exosuit cargo
I was like “Redeem all the milestones so I can get the phase rewards”
installing cheesy c class modules and destroying them gives you a tidy pile of chromatic metal, and gods know we got enough crap modules
I just sold all the modules for nanites
I figured I could live without 60 here and there
It was the partners in time miilestone in phase 5
I got it before leaving the first system
Oops! All C-class!
and it's one of the only milestones to persist between loops
so I was able to get 500 activated emeril after looping
because I think that one just requires giving pole each of the three materials
somnal dust, liquid sun, and ancestral memories
super easy to get, and it solves a lot of materials problems for a while
does anyone know how to fix the completion bug?
Wait for there to be a patch
so basically no one has it yet?
some people didn't get the bug
experimental supposedly has it fixed
but those of us that did have to wait
not sure how that's proof 
You gotta use gunters example
"Expedition Complete"
Red went to all the trouble of pinning it
or a picture where it says 0/5 phases and clearly shows all the phases complete
how does one get the experimental version?
It’s on steam only
Arcbolt gets it 
Experimental branch
we've got a feeling that the patch will get to the other platforms soon
I'm not seeing anything under the betas dropdown menu in the steam properties
One would hope
hopefully tomorrow but obvz no promises since i assume HG also depends on platforms' certification and release process and whatnot
Hello Everyone, First of all, thanks so much to everyone who has already spent time playing No Man's Sky and letting us know about any issues you've experienced. Steam users are able to opt-in to the Experimental Branch, where we have pushed a patch to address some problems. We'll be rolling out these fixes to other platforms as soon as possible...
Directions to access experimental are on that page
Is the universal loop progression an individual thing or is it like the nexus community research?
Community
Dying is bad for your health
well living isnt exactly great for it either
Living is kinda mandatory for it
living has the highest mortality rate in all existence
If I build next to a disabled sential pillar.. Can they reactivate?
After being disabled
Sentinels reactivate when you leave the system or reload
Oh I see haha!
But then you can just deactivate immediately
Btw I can't swap my multitools...
i lost the first loop point.
so
With the sential pillar it's greyed out
Oo
so i have to kill myself to find it again/.'
There's at least one way I can think of to find it again :p
yeah that's the way I was thinking of
hmm, i have quite a few milestone rewards unlocked
well, im going out like a g by fighting sentinels then
I did it
🐳
Wdym by having “experimental” enabled?
on pc experimental beta
the experimental beta version accessed through steam
this
Oh okay
u use it t o get the item essentially
I won’t be able to play the expedition until Tuesday night. Grief
but if you logged in atlas it crashed u
i finished in 5.2hrs thought i was on it for so much longer
What's the optional mission on expedition 7 iteration 1?
Oh wow okay. Guess I don’t have to worry about not making it in the 6weeks then
Interesting stats
How do you complete the optional milestones
Theyre not actually something to do?
Progress towards them is made by giving materials to Polo
yea
and the progress is shared among all people participating in the expedition
Oh, nice, the Leviathan has -9 expedition fuel cost
does experimental actually put it in your save?
that's really good given it's already high stats
no, it just gives you the ability to claim the reward if the bug prevented you from doing so
I mean like it lets you do it and you can have it in non experimental
oh, yeah, it should
welp bed time
so how do you get experimental?
thanks
there a way to know if a world is infested
all of the anchor worlds are infested
interestingly, after finishing the expedition, upgrades are still unavailable on the Anomaly
ill check it out, i just hope theyre not also ingested
yeah, I remember being annoyed by that, mostly because it means that you can't sell upgrades there, either
Is it optional?
Yes and yes
Anyone know how to deal with all of the planetary settlements being owned after you fight the sentinels over and over again???
All done with phase 4

Is the expedition hard or it pretty easy because the last one was pretty easy
Compared to the last one
This one is a significant difficulty bump
Yeah
Mmmmm
Ok
Thks
The biggest hurdle is.. Don't jump dash down a hill..
There seems to be a fair amount of Pirates too.
I've spent a while trying to build up my resources.. Mainly using salvaged ships.. Which I teleported to the station to scrap..
How long do expeditions last?
this one is 6 weeks
Once you get to an outlaw system, getting units becomes a lot easier
Some of the contraband can be sold for a lot
I think I ended the expedition with like 14 million units, which is more than you could possibly need to complete it
6 weeks most of them
Oh whoops
Ohh
This expedition isn’t very user friendly
So it means that when you die (and you will) your progress will be wiped out
Yeah, a 3 meter fall and died
That’s how I got my milestone death
Flew up into the air with my jet pack and fell to my death
Good thing is that I can cheat death and don't get my progress wiped
I didn't think alt-f4 worked
I mean if you’re playing in single player
Thanks to the random guy who's giving away inventory slots to everyone in nexus. Makes this expedition much bearable
It works
good to know
After a shitshow I experienced in exp 5, I do them with multiplayer turned off 😉
What happened then?
how do i comlete the 1st optional milestone? said something about complete the first universal loop
It’s a community objective
You’ll have to wait for everyone to build progress by turning things into polo
It was just utter chaos in the first and second rendezvous stations with ships disappearing or having 3 copies on top of each other - too many people
so I just need to keep handing polo materials to contribute to the progress?
Yeah
thanks. this is gonna be a loooong grind
Yes, but keep in mind it’s supposed to be completed across 6 weeks
So it’ll take time for it to be filled out by the community
that milestone does not need to be compelte for you to complete the expedition and get the rewards, once you have done the entire expedition (and claimed all the rewards on another save!), do those 'help Polo' missions as often or as infrequently as you like to help the progress bar along
Note that the progress bar controls the class of memory fragments granted, progressing from: C (where we are now?), to B, to A, to S (lovely!) to... X (so maybe that last progression is a bit poor)
Maybe it will be max X class
Like full potential
maybe, but I would bet on randomly generated
yah that makes sense. I'll finish all the exp objectives first then do the material grind
of course you do need to help polo 5 times (and best that three of those are one of each type). but after that, concentrate on the remaining milestones
Why didn’t you just get a few from memory fragments and then dupe the hell outta them
The optional tier is a bit slow moving no? At least tier 1 should have been completed by now
Yeah
Gotta fill each of them to 100%
Which is a lot of stuff
Just need a few people to mass dupe em
why is hyperdrive locked in the shop? Do I need to unlock it via polo rewards?
We are on day 2 or 3 of the expedition and we have 6 weeks. There is time for the community research to fill up.
It's a reward from the milestones.
You unlock a pre-packaged hyperdrive module from doing a certain milestone.
alright thanks. first time doing expeditions
Oof, shoulda done blighted
It was an easy one to start with
Only took 4 or 5 hours
Good luck on your travels through the expedition!
that start was absolutely brutal. took me an hour to get out of the planet
One more thing… uhhhh… are you a regular to survival saves?
just started 2 weeks ago in normal
Be sparing on jet packs
I am also a normal player
Gravity is a cruel, cruel mistress in this expedition.
I hav#e died to fall damage on every attempt that got anywhere
After you get a few mods, fall damage is pretty much your only enemy
yah most of my deaths are either from fall or getting sucker punched by a random creature
Yeah, HG made a mistaaake starting on a planet with so many aggressive life forms
I’ve seen like 8 people get eaten
And on survival a lot of them got like 1 shot
now on to get storm crystals... wish me luck. ah and need to kill 20 sentinels, this is getting harder
I saw a guy get killed by the striders on the first planet who stopped afk at his ship
I looked back and he was on the ground 👀 👀
The FIRST planet?!
I saw that happen like 3 times
That is incredibly sad.
if I dont trip over a plant and dont harvest will the anchor 4 sentinels still try to murder me?
Yeh, the striders are super aggressive
Aw man, I'm not looking forward to this after work.. Hah.
It’s easy as long as you are quick
Friend just told me he got glitched through the space station and lost everything yesterday.
Its basically just a survival save where if you die, your restart all of your milestones and your inventory, and basically everything.
That's sad
So Perma? Lol
But, dying only makes an autosave. You will be able to use a manual save to revert back to before death.
Save doesn't delete. Produral modules on death and as rewards
So it's like a different type of perma
thank you for helping clarify, Arcadia
And don't expect to buy or base your way out. They upped the salvage data and nanite costs of basically everything
lots of ppl seem confused, cuz in-game, when you start the save, it does mention the word "permadeath" but it isn't the standard permadeath mode we're used to in NMS.
And what are the non-cosmetic rewards for this exped?
it's a "roguelike" survival / perma-wannabe mode.
Yeah
Oh, i could bare that i guess.
Every other time it is mentioned in logs though that the death isn't permanent
I think Sean realized that permadeath was a bit much for some people

Leviathan Expedition: https://www.nomanssky.com/2022/05/expedition-seven-leviathan/
Hello Everyone! It’s been such a thrill to see players enjoying our most recent major update, OUTLAWS. Whether it was hunting down pirates for lucrative bounties, becoming an intergalactic smuggler yourself, seeking the treasure of The Blight in the most recent expedition, or just stylishly exploring space in a cape – it’s been a delight... View...
that link shows info on the rewards btw
i personally don't have a list. otherwise i'd post it. maybe i can have someone list it and i can pin that too. i'll check some resources.
I literally have no clue what channels I'm in tonight. I keep thinking they are different than what they are 😫

welcome to NMS Discord
it happens to all of us
sometimes i literally direct ppl to the channel we're already in 
it's happened to me at least twice in the last month.
That's awesome
super embarrassing when it happens too 
Well, everyone makes mistakes.
totes magotes. it's just extra embarrassing when the member doing it is a friggin admin 
The whale frigate and cloaks seems interesting. As well as that space cow
right? i'm def excited for the cloak. ooh and there's also a cool starship trail
expos always have some kickass rewards i just absolutely want and can't miss out on
Oh the one in the trailer? Bet, i want that xD
The trail basically slightly distorts space around the boosters.
I don't think that's true, manual saves will get overwritten/removed after death unless you've backed them up
Ah, okay. I'll test it once I get home on a different expedition save.
yeah, with this particular expo, the survival mode isn't standard
it's a roguelike experience
this expedition has a different/weird save file and death mechanic so people are doing a lot of testing 😄
so the manual save is overwritten too
you get no backup option 
at least not when it comes to death
Ps4 cloud.. coughs
you get an auto and a manual save, 2 total. but if you die, you get reset. both saves are affected.
not everyone gets a backup option
PS4 you can do USB even
PS5 no USB backup option
neither does Xbox
sooo yeah, if you're on PC and PS4, def make backups
no ps5 as usual got nothing. no usb backup, no save editor, nothing
:(
Damn
To be honest, if I'm doing a manual upload I'll probably end up saving a death cycle
Screw it I'll play it like Risk of Rain
This option it seems is a way on Xbox for back up: #nms-expedition message
so it seems the optional milestones to get higher class memory parts are pretty much impossible to complete and therefore pointless?
they are community progress. they will affect later runs/restarts
ah ok
They are possible, we are 54% on completing Tier 1.
that's an "interesting" workaround. i'm just not sure how reliable it is. hmmm it may be worth a try in the name of science. ty so much for sharing it
why dupe?
I'm on my third save
And in normal
And it is a new method I think
Not something I youtubed
what's the use of memory imprint? should i just discard it?
How your going to upgrade and get technology in this expedition.
I have a question my friends and my question is that I’ve completed every iteration and every phase but except for the optional phases but the thing it says that expedition is incomplete and it also says 0/5 even tho I’ve completed every phase and iteration so my question here why is it doing that and do I need to complete the optional phases to complete the entire thing?
Im just abit confused. I went to a grave and gave me this. No idea what to do since the expedition tab just told me to go to the next anchor
Hahha me too
I heard that the optional can only be completed by tthe community as a whole
Just need to wait it out
Yes the optional phases need to be completed but that was unintentional in HG's part. A fix should be on the way soon.
Oh
No wonder why it didn’t complete
Thought it was actually optional
Alright thanks my attractive friend
Analyze it and install the upgrade unless you mean the next part of the expedition.
it's the one you received after the first anchor. The one with the description of the dead traveller
They are, its just bugged atm, fix is currently being tested on experimental
Yeah they seemed bugged because I helped polo 3 times with the resources and it doesn’t seem to complete the first optional phase
That part isnt bugged, they are community objectives so it takes a lot
Not actually being optional for the final reward is the bug
I see
Hey guys, have any of you completed the expedition yet? I have all phases completed but it won't give me the frigate
Nevermind, question was asked earlier I see
should be a fix coming soon, it's working on the steam experimental branch
So I don't need to do all the 3 quests for Polo to get the milestone for that?
Or is it like the Nexus community research, and the global reward is this optional milestone?
i tryed but need so so many resources to give
How many?
and can't get the completion until they are completed
I’ve been giving him so much for like 6 times already
until the bar is filled i think ..
when reach 1 should complete first milestone .. but not sure about that
Are you still stuck at 6% or something
It’s stuck at 55% for me
Doesn’t go up
I’m assuming this is a community thing
If you give once for example, it's appearing to me too.. Means everyone who Participate will contribute to it
Have people already completed the expedition
Yes

lol wait, they're fiiine
Yeah I just woke up, saw a bad beasty spawn behind a player shot it down. Twice. Then my brain turned on and I realized what was prolly going on.
I need something explained
Explain it daddy
If the Leviathan is the reward for completing the expedition
But the expedition has optional objectives that are community research
So how are folks able to get the Leviathan without these milestones?
Or are these not required?
optional
You don’t need to do the optionals and btw they’re community stuff and hello games at the moment is trying to fix the optional thing
So I’m assuming friendly fire man that you’ve completed every phase except for the optional ones but you are having a extensional crisis over the optional community thing
Not really, I just started the expedition
I didn't know the optional milestones did not count towards the main reward
I thought the same but I scrolled up here and figured out some things were wrong
So what they do count towards?
Or are they just for extra rewards like these memory fragment thingies for inventory / upgrades?
Extra rewards daddy
They fill up some community bar thing in the progress mission thing but other than that you get extra rewards
And I got some emergency broadcasters as well but I’m not sure if you got some too
Pretty sure you did
I garuntee I’m going to die right near the end
On the bright side playing as a gek is fun
He’s just a little guy
Just try not to be clumsy and be careful when it comes to doing the melee and jet pack jump trick because that can kill you very easily especially in like mountain planets
The what trick
the melee jump boost bug thing
If you press melee and jet pack at the same time you boost
||Where do I get the Organic Frigate after completing the expedition? ||
I had to unlearn that as it is my main mode of transport in my normal game
||All I see is Organic frigate ornamite? ||
It helps with getting further to somewhere but be careful with this mode because if you die it’s over
I believe it’s bugged atm
Can’t get it right now daddy
Just wait for update patch
Hello games will fix 
okay
hope i will get it. i rushed throough it cause ill be gone out of town all month of june
||so every thing "Loop Research" is optional right?||
Yeah pretty sure it’ll get fixed by like this Monday coming up
Yeah
Community thing
in the spawn planet
I went to the station in the spawn system but it’s not showing up on my station list
i should have created a base there smh
So I can’t get back without using my my warp cores
Gotta trust the anomaly will send me to an angry planet
There was a planet I Believe you go though and in one of the expedition route planets and there’s a fire planet that has a pyramid head looking tiger animal that’s aggressive
leave anamoly "Hostile Scan detected." enter anamoly
No there was another one
Animal pellets
Not entirely. You have to do 5 for a milestone.
Usually they attack other animals
The normal ones?
And that’s when you tame them
yes
I remember there was meat pellets at some point
not anymore
There are creature pellets.
Sadge 
they simplifed it
I never got into the cooking. What is the purpose?
Good idea in perma/survival saves is to hotkey them so you can toss them out if a hostile creature is after you
No going through the quick menu
not much they need to more
with it
Cooking is for nanites
If they gave you stat buffs, cooking with have been ideal for this expedition.
but it helps resort your life support and hazard protection
"Extra protection against radiation" or something
some recipes can help with jet pack and heath maybe...
rpg's been doing this for years and I like it
They do give you a whispering omelette at least in this expedition lol
Buffs the sprinting
the amount they help isnt worth it
"Enhances danger awareness"
and hazard protection, and jetpack, and stamina
Aye
Food for jet pack?!
you can also give itewms to the guy in the anomly for nanits
yes
8s unlimited jetpack, yes
But they didn't give it to us this time because it would have been easy to get around the nanite restriction
Is the jetpack plugged into my stomach
Do you really want to know how the exosuit is fueled
Yes 
i couldn't either, but i know of at least 1 user that was able to share discoveries with helios/ares
the blue plants can be consumed for a boost
don't recommend doing that during the exped 🙃
yay finished the expedition
Oh the plants, I thought you meant cooked consumables
both
plants and cooked consumables

That last milestone about gave me a heart attack
I do not want a heart attack
Me either
Same I thought ending it was gonna restart
Did yuo escape the loop
ye

Now we need someone who doesn't have the perma achievement to do a core jump on this save and tell us if it works for that
|| I was super pissed. I though it was going reset everything! || LOl
I dont think so
Cuase it counts the save as a survival mode save
Not a perma mode save
That's my feeling but it's hard to know for sure since in reality it's a perma
Same
Same bro I was silent and was gonna get mad but after spawning back and seeing my stuff again I was happy
can i get Exotic on expedition? waiting like 30 mins and only C and B class...
Exotic are always S class
Should we use || help prevent spoilers? or is this spoiler expected channel?
And yes, I got one
I was thinking the same that’s why I didn’t specify my other message
ok thx, lets try to wait
It's a .3% chance in every system so it may just be a while.
You're best trying at a trading post because there's faster ship refresh there
u just have S Solar ?)
i was glad to see that there's no free freighter in exp7.
however its weird that i have a "Freighter" tab in my inventory UI
What do you mean? There is a free freighter
was wondering about that too
I summoned it everywhere
Me too, built storage and chilled there to do my refining
Made some units sending out my freebie frigate
anyone else has it happen that daylight jumps to night and vice versa? happened to me twice now??
nope, first freighter i rescued on warpin was not free - note: rescue battle happened in an outlawsystem
I started with a freighter
also, this
Out of the gate
i could see a freighter tab, but it had no hyperdrive installed.
Same
I got a free one as well
I eventually traded it in for a prettier but still terrible freighter 😄
even without it having a hyperdrive lmao
it runs on magic
Hoppin on exp7, playing the sloooowwwww game if anyone wants to do so as well
i guess i shouldn't have assumed
yes
that's a multi-tool?
i so wanted this tool, because i wanted to test more tech lol
probably one of the first times i've gone up to a mt cache
and didn't have enough units to buy it lol
I found an outlaw station almost instantly, was very lucky
With all the updates, can the (larval egg protector bugs) atta k through or spawn in buildings?
Well I’m stuck under the volcano
Also lucky bouncing around and selling trade items between systems
The build-a-box method still works
Hey arcbolt. How does it work with outlaws. If I do as many outlaws missions.. Then after I finish them I should make sure I have a passport to return to normal systems right?
And my ship will get above it but it will just stay still in the air
Build a floor too?
nope
I did 2 long walls, 2 short
you can also grab and hop in an exocraft because they die if they touch it, but if a sentinel sees it will aggro
Damn. You sure you aint tryin to get me killed in expeditions? Lmao
So far i just blast with a minotaur and grab a few and wait till they subside
if it works for you, no reason not to do it that way
I went and tested things in my regular survival save after the update to see what still worked
So box off the eggs then so your saying box the eggs and farm from inside box, right?
This works at buildings?
I made the box as tight as I could around the eggs, could only fit 3 or 4 in with me
again, 2 short, 2 long walls
so I had to build a few boxes and it took longer than the way I might do it in a normal save but I ain't messin in a perma save
is someone willing to list the hostiles encountered at each of the memory loop points (not anchor points, but the grave sites)? I dunno if they need to be spoilered or not, it seems we are all talking pretty openly about all phases and wrinkles of milestones here
for the first one it's ||bio horrors||, for 2 it's ||corrupt sentinels|||...
Bruh five hours down the drain bc I’m stuck under a volcano
At the third grave there’s nothing
I would if I could but after those first two I made a point of tabbing out of the milestone indicators, jumping in my minotaur, and gtfo as fast as possible
And for the rest as well
Really? The third gave the warning
Not for me i just went back to my starship
Nothing happened
I though something was that’s why I pulled out my multi tool
But nothing happened
I nearly ate it at anchor 1
So far ive set 2 bases in the first iteration between a crashed freighter, storm crystals, a sentinel pillar larvel eggs, and a manufacturing facility. I figure ive mostly got "the danger" out of the way, right?
hey @remote thunder was that your experience too? nothing at graves 3,4,5?
(that's your penance for never realizing you could summon your tech-less freighter :-P)
long as you got the predator taming sorted, that sounds about right
||a dreadful wailing|| is the last one, right? sorry it was late
Yeah there’s nothing really after 1 and 2
I mean, aside from anchor 4
Wail, lol
sorry
lemme check my list, "another chance", the one right after you get the dreadful wailing reward at anchor 5
on the crashed freighter, i didn't get any
but
on the 4th grave i did get a loop event
oh? what was that then?
where was the first system that u spawn in in the expedition?
Uhh u cant talk to npcs in station to learn words?
u can. sometimes its just bugged
and nothing at grave 3?
grave 3 i believe corrupted sentinels
Ive visited 5 systems now and no one wants to talk to me 🥲
where's the best place to adopt a predatory companion?
Maybe try a reload
restart ur game
Nah learning words is a milestone
There’s a fire planet and there’s a animal that has a pyramid head that has a tiger like body
i mean i did it on the starter planet
First planet, imo
oh, because grave 2 had those
Did you check the very first system in your discoveries?
Rowland-Desk
the name of the starter world and system are in a pinned message here
Planet is Christole Oich
oh cool i didnt know that they are sorted by order of discovery
cool working now. Just needed a restart
wait.
grave 3.. toxic infested, right?
a moon?
no, was a planet
but still, toxic infested?
um. Rora 15, yeah toxic I think
right rora 15
ok, sorry, scratch corrupted sentinels. i couldn't really tell with this one tbh, but it seemed to be that it created an extreme weather event, in my case a single tornado
ah ha, ok
there was no storm warning or anything - just the tooltip with red text
oic
i remember thinking that it was odd
that just like that a tornado spawned
like literally, maybe 20u away from me, my first reflex was switch to terrain manip and dig a hole
Is the bug for the final reward fixed on experimental?
@remote thunder thanks bro
anytime b
I'm checking a stream to see if the reports are the same, we'll find out
I was wondering if anyone had also tested it to see if it works retroactively or if we need to complete the final step again
but indeed that one was the strangest
another stream has no event at all. weird
I mean there is the 'collapsing' notification but nothing actually happens
Got my agro pet. Now i get to enjoy some story hopefully
i wasn't too sure of myself about it either, as you could kinda tell probably. i'll probably rerun the exp, so i'll try to remember to pay very close attention to all of them.
i clearly remember thinking "wait was that the collapsing loop effect - i didn't see anything else, it must have been - and a single one? on top of me? no storm warning?"
oh well, sorry for not providing definitive answer
I'm looking at a second stream now, will report on that one too
now that i completed the exp i think i can open my full mod vault 😄
50k stacksize in hardcore/perma here i come 😄
good morning. im still willing to give away ~20 upgrade moduls and ~15million worth of items to newcomers cause im finished with the expedition
just dm me if youre interested
Morning
wtf... someone built a base over where you spawn at the end of the expedition... I'm stuck
report it
No Man's Sky - Multiplayer
When another player has built a base somewhere that is impacting your experience, you can report this base, despawning the offending base after the report process is complete.
How to Report another Player base:
While on the base, simply bring up your on foot quick menu, scroll to the right and press the Report Offensive or Inappropriate Base: button.
An alternative would be to interact with the base computer, and reporting the base from there.
📖 Did you know? Reporting another player's base does not report it to the developers, and it doesn't affect the owner either, so don't feel bad about it.
Gotcha, thanks

Hope they ban the pos. That's just f'n rude.
(i thought i had updated that image..)
yeah, thanks
As far as the final reward goes, I think I read that it's bugged and we can't claim it yet? Any ETA on that, or just keep an eye out for a hotfix patch type thing?
Fixed in experimental
Okay cool, so hopefully not long. Ty
Np
which type of chart to find abandoned buildings where the whispering eggs at
so this stream, no instant anything at the 3rd grave either, not weather event or anything else
emergency/distress signal
thanks
so are crashed freighters
how do people end so fast the expeditions? xD
knowledge about the game, a bit of luck sometimes
and just the expedition mindset, working towards multiple goals at the same time
seems fair, i will start today after i finish work
how does the inventory stack upgrade works?
knowing what you will need to do ahead by reviewing milestone objectives and rewards, from all phases, also helps
each memory fragment (inventory) adds 5 slots when used
How do you get the phase 1 optional milestone?
it's a community effort optional milestone
Ohhh
basically
completing those..will upgrade all memory fragments class, for all players
oh i thought it also upgraded the stack size
so its 250 all along the expedition?
stack sizes are 250/500
Yeah, but some inventory limits haven't changed
okey :/
There is NO way I'd be able to finish this expedition without save scumming. Not without un-binding the jetpack button so you don't die trying to boost-run. 🙂
just dont do the boost bug, easy
well, there's players who have died quite a few more times
sometimes it's not about it being hard
5+1 for me
sometimes you get caught by surprise by a predator or a fall that didn't seem like it would hurt at all
i'm pretty much done and only died once, but i managed to survive a close encounter with horrors+aggressive sentinels+tornadoes, and i'm well aware that i was very near death at that point
i didn't die because i somehow kept calm
getting picked up by that one tornado actually ended up helping me get away
but i was careful enough to notice my jetpack tank levels
and basically just let it carry me wherever, saving that jetpack for when getting close to the ground
anchor point planets were mountainous/big drops
what happens if you're in the minotaur when a tornado comes along? or for that matter, can you take jump damage in one?
it can't pick you up
however
when you exit an exocraft after it was hit by a tornado, you will get flung into the air
oh lol that's amusing
yeah, in a way 😄
well that was the closet to death ive been. some sort of bug where i raised my shield on accident and attacked or something, sent me flying forward about 50 feet. thankfully i was in a flat area
and what about jump damage, (which shows how not often I use the minotaur), if you jump from a stepp mountaside, is the minotaur going to take damage? are you?
not that i know of; exos are immune to fall damage
that's good to know. might be relying on that to get around some of these mountain peaks then
save me from perma fall damage
yep, that's a good idea
Any strategy tips for the expedition? On my way to phase 2 and I'm like 8 hours in... So probably doing something silly
be prepared for hostiles at gravesites
don't melee boost unles you play perma a lot and know the consequences
review all milestones and phase objectives/rewards, except the optional ones. learn what you can get from completing them, and how it will make it easier for you to complete other milestones
Riding your pet overland lets you blaze through terrain objects without collision and handle elevation changes easily. Some are also really fast as well.
go for all anchor point milestones, visit space stations on each of those systems
i still trust my exomech for that a bit more
at least i know i won't die when i press space
Pets are faster, imo. They dont damage things so dont alert sentinals.
Wait. Should I try to research exocraft in the expedition?
there's a milestone
Ohhh
the anchor - build a base on a infested biome planet (e.g. starter planet)
r: minotaur geobay bp, nomad geobay bp, nautilon geobay bp, memory fragment (exocraft) x5
Def read up on the rewards for all milestones!
Is there a wiki or something? Or in game?
other thing I'm looking into is whether the derelict for 'a shattered past' can be in any system or it must be an anchor system or it must be anchor 5's system (ugh)
as far as i could tell, it didn't seem like it
And often theres a reason to go back to earlier systems for later milestone completions. Unless, of course, you've read up on milestones so can knock those out while there.
oh so any derelict at all if the milestone is pinned?
if I put stuff in a storage container on someone else's base, is that still my storage inventory not theirs, and can i access the same stuff after i die?
inventory is reset upon death
but it's a good point that the grave milestones did, so perhaps it does needs to be in rdv5
Anyone trying to group up? I’m on PlayStation
#nms-lfg-or-trades as well
my exocrafts dont have vanilla speed values tho
yeah,that seemed to be the case
something else to test
though rdv5 DF wasnt "bad"
not that great other (from what I'm seeing)
11 rooms
yeah 11 rooms no bugs though
Yooo these milestones are insane!? Shut down a planet's sentinels!? That's even possible?
if you don't have good shields and nice weapons, the drones can really get you to the edge
yes
since the Sentinels update, yes
I'm new, so just intimidating
it won't feel as much later on
Might not make it haha
that's actually one of the easier milestones
i would play a few hours in another game mode, if you're really new
if you know how to play tho 😄
good point
there's still plenty of time left to finish the exp
6 weeks
right should probably move to #no-mans-sky for that
Have 35 hours on my main save. Have a decent base, B-class freighter, and an Exotic. So like ... Not brand new, but really new
and later runs (except the very last ones, X modules, eww) will be with better gear, so easier
i do think the people doing the exp later will ahve it easier
each milestone of polo increases the class of the memory mods
Yeah, will get easier closer to the finish line
no they are C next level they are B
Good balancing mechanic even for total newbs like me
except for S -> X. which, well...
basically, if you have a understanding of the basics, you should be good to hop in - ofc, the more you know about it, the easier it can become
we dont talk about x class
lol
Yeah, like - how to harvest storm crystals. Never done that. Always just buy/loot them
But I'll get there
exomech during storm on planets that have activated metals
When do you think the patch will be released?
Hoping for today
Had a feeling they will release it befor ethey go home for the weekend if no problems has occured
but I can only hope Ig 🤷♂️
Anyone trying to group up for the expedition?
remember when i said review all milestones? i try to apply the same principle to "finding a planet" - if i'm in a system already, and there's a planet that is suitable for completing a milestone, even if it's from another completely different phase, i'll know, because i reviewed it. anchor point 4 is an extreme weather+aggressive sentinel planet that spawns storm crystals.
no
in fact, and unfortunately it must be said, playing multiplayer can add or make some issues more common
Anyone find Sometimes the enemy Pirates can't be killed.? It's so bugged
no, had no issue
My pro move kinda came to me, my first 3 bases had a multitool with 3k dmg, sentinels and eggs, and stormcrystals, crashed freighter, and sentinal pillar. So much tough careful choices, but only died when i needed to so far.... wish me luck for the rest, half way there.
How do expeditions work ? I make a new save and get the rewards but do I have to keep playing on this save after??? Do I get the stuff on my other saves after ?
Well, you do the exp, hopefully finish it, then go to the quicksilver shop to take them, though beware you need to claim the reward in the exp first before you get them in the other saves
Yeah, I also claimed my golden vector, very powerful ship for expeditions
one thing about the twitch drops, if you die, they are gone and you cannot reclaim them
not on that run, and (bug?) maybe not on a new save in th expd for the moment
Good thing I didn't die
So I claim the rewards in the expedition ( how do I do that?) and after that I can go claim em on my other save in the quicksilver shop? this is my first time doing an expedition
nanites. or sell, your choice
OH
I only use my golden vector for expeditions because inventory and I hate slow ships
Yeah you will see how to claim and the quicksilver shop is where that robot stands east of the nexus
alright thanks
Totally Insane, trying to rescue freighter.. And there's 2 random Pirates that block commes and are invincible lmao. I had to fly and pulse drive away after a while
Cos they kept disabling pulse drive
Then leave that freighter
you already have one at the start
Ive seen some people talking about invincible pirates here before
Yeah I ran away hahah
trying to run away from these aggressive sentinels omg
why run, fight them
Be only surrounded by fear and dead sentinels
there’s a milestone for it??
shields and weapon might not be that great for eliminating 5 waves (and if you're not prepared to do that, you might as well run)
yes
there's a milestone for killing 20 but you can choose time and place
shoot them
These egg things are annoying as hell with all the infested plants in the way, anyone suggest a better planet to get these? I can't find any abandoned buildings either.
e.g.: near a building or even a base you can duck into when things get too hot
there are a couple bases built at abandoned buildings, typically calle dthings like 'larval core farm'
eh but it says to disable a sentinel pillar??
disabling a pillar is actually eay once you find one
sounds scary
you can buy supicious packets from an outlaw system, check the glass, if you don't get a map, save and reload
use any airless world, its what i did
but once you have one you literally walk up to the terminal, go through the dialogue, disable. that's it.
The first anchor planet has eggs lying around
i got one sus packet alrd
I found a sential pillar randomly on an infested world
ohhhh
i will do that
once i get another storm crystal
Disabled it and built the most pathetic base there
the 4th anchor planet was complete anus
Then wen I restarted I disabled it again and got the 20 sential insta Kills
a pathetic base, uploaded so people can find it, is a great base
I'll upload it
just save reload disable until done I guess?
Yeah
may be a bit slow but if it gets the job done
It's got a teleporter and the carbon battery device
base module and construction terminal
you spent the salv data to get a teleporter on line? with solar panel even??
Finally used it to warp all my wrecked shops to scrap
No panels. I got the device to charge the warper
By putting in carbon
oh, the biofuel reactor. right
I put enough to charge for like 20 seconds
U can stil warp back which is ncie
Nice regardless if it's powered
still I guess anyone can just go grab some nearby carbon and then head out that way if they want
but the teleporter, wasn't that like 100 salv dataa?
20? that's not horrid
And bioreactor was 10 I think
the solar panel and the battery togather would be more
Yeahh.
Now I've dumped my 5 wrecked ships for small cash. And doing some trade routes to get lots more cash
sweet!
8*
ahh i see
what are the chances??
oh damn i cant send a picture to ask if the sus packet is the right one i have
what are the rewards from this expedition
A living frigate when completed.@sudden vessel
Cool starship trail, a new cape, posters, a living frigate
Sadly we can't get the frigate yet due to a bug.
the rewards for this one go pretty hard tbh
only thing it'd be missing would be like, an egg or a ship or something
Well we do get the living frigate calf for our bases. That's a "something"
I don't seem to be able to get a emergency broadcast receiver from either of the two npc's it states.
Anyone else having issues?
you can buy the "goods" packages, those are the ones to try
you should get a receiver from the bounds testing milestone
But I need one to find the stuff the loop research mission is asking for. Very confused with this.
He's asking for tainted metal. What's that?
no. the "bounds testing " milestone is where you get your hyperdrive
Stuff u get on derelicts
literally go talk to Polo, go back to the or a planet, collect ancestral memories by feeding and then intercting with fauna (toss a pellet into the middle of a group) or
Try liquid sun or ancestral memories, they dont need scavenging derelict freighters
build the solar ray and use it on mineral deposits
But report ur issue to HG
return the results to Polo, done.
and Polo should not be asking for tainted metal but for somnal dust as the third item, you don't have to do that right now
i got it!! i just went to an abandoned building on a planet where i got my minotaur and let it deal with the level 5 bot
i ended up not needing to go to the pillar at all
at an abandoned building? but they arenn't usually guarded by sentinels... did this have whispering eggs or did you man something else?
yeah there’s eggs
huh. weird there would be sentinels there
who knows, glad you got it done

"Go to your multi tool and install the solar ray"
Hun there ain't nothing to install. ;_;
Are bugs usual with expeditions? This is my first ^__^
I've just gone into my multi-tool to install the solar Ray like it says, and the plans for it are not there? Do I need to aquire them from anywhere?
You need to claim some milestone
Can't remember which
He got it, thank you @foggy cloak 💜
no problem
sorry! "observing the cycle" is the milestone with the solar array plans, I was off looking at things in another window
expedition progress is lost after it ends? i cant move it to my survival game right?
the save will turn into a survival save when the 6 weeks is up
you'll keep anything you got (items, units, nanite, etc)
so anyone know if in the expedition if you follow the anchor paths if you wil come across a activated copper planet etc? trying todo the storm crystal 1 but im like around halfway on the way to the 4th anchor point but cant find 1 yet lol
rumour mill says the acrid moon in anchor system 1 has them
I'm sorry I don't have the name to hand
its fine ill just go back to the first system then xD
if you veify that can you let me know the name of the world and I'll add it to my tips list
ye i wil holdup
you said the anchor 1 system right bcuz there isnt any activated copper on it and there isnt a acrid moon just a "acrid planet"
Anyone know where I can easily find a pirate system?
Rdv4 has storm crystals
oh ty ^^
was 1 jump away from it when i went to check out rdv1 lol
luckely i jumped from a space station so i can get back easily LOL
near the Rowland Desk system, name: Toympiae III", 86LY away from Roland Desk system en route to anchor 1, F8/Water (Gek)
Mapon VIII in anchor system 1 is the storm crystal world, found the name
odd it didnt show it had activated copper (which it usually says if there are extreme storms on the planet)
lol
what does the anchor 4 world show for resources?
i got trolled by leviathan,
warping there rn so gimmie a sec xD
i thought i was dying back to zero
until i realized that my expedition was completed entirely
a little jump scare there 😄
huh it doesnt show any activated resources either hmm
gues its either a bug or they changed it so storm crystals can now be found on reg storm planets
no, I think it's having to do with the mode of play
ah
not 100% sure about that though
fair
i experienced that when my player died other than leviathan, it turned back from scratch, when i submitted to leviathan, i double checked if i was going back to zero, only to get rickrolled
`LOL
😄
youve been ricked by the leviathan
***imagine if it actaully started playing the rickroll when you interact with it in the expedition tho 😂 ***
someone will do a mod for that
